    [Fiyero]
    The trouble with schools is
    They always try to teach the wrong lesson
    Believe me, I've been kicked out
    Of enough of them to know
    They want you to become less callow
    Less shallow
    But I say: why invite stress in?
    Stop studying strife
    And learn to live "the unexamined life"...

    Dancing through life
    Skimming the surface
    Gliding where turf is smooth
    Life's more painless
    For the brainless
    Why think too hard?
    When it's so soothing
    Dancing through life
    No need to tough it
    When you can sluff it off as I do
    Nothing matters
    But knowing nothing matters
    It's just life
    So keep dancing through...

    Dancing through life
    Swaying and sweeping
    And always keeping cool
    Life is faught less
    When you're thoughtless
    Those who don't try
    Never look foolish
    Dancing through life
    Mindless and careless
    Make sure you're where less
    Trouble is rife
    Woes are fleeting
    Blows are glancing
    When you're dancing
    Through life...
    So-what's the most swankified place in town?

    [Glinda]
    That would be the Ozdust Ballroom.

    [Fiyero]
    Sounds perfect.
    Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom
    We'll meet there later tonight
    We can dance till it's light
    Find the prettiest girl...
    Give her a whirl
    Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom
    Come on
    Follow me
    You'll be happy to be there...

    [Students]
    Dancing Through Life
    Down at the Ozdust...

    [Fiyero]
    If only because dust
    Is what we come to

    [Students]
    Nothing matters
    But knowing nothing matters
    It's just life...

    [Fiyero]
    So keep dancing through...

    [Boq]
    Miss GLINDA, I hope you'll save at least one dance for me. I'll be right here. Waiting. All night.

    [Glinda]
    Oh-that's so kind. But you know what would be even kinder?
    See that tragic'ly beautiful girl
    The one in the chair
    It seems so unfair
    We should go on a spree
    And not she
    Gee-
    I know someone would be my hero
    If that someone were
    To go invite her...

    [Boq]
    Well maybe, I could invite her?

    [Glinda]
    Oh, Bick, really?
    You would do that for me?

    [Boq]
    I would do anything for you Miss GLINDA.

    [Glinda]
    So...

    [Fiyero]
    So I'll be picking you up around eight?

    [Glinda]
    After all-
    Now that we've met one another

    [Glinda & Fiyero]
    It's clear we deserve each other

    [Glinda]</i>
    You're perfect...

    [Fiyero]
    You're perfect...

    [Glinda & Fiyero]
    So we're perfect together
    Born to be forever...
    Dancing Through Life...

    [Nessa]
    Oh, Elphaba-Isn't it wonderful?
    Fin'lly for this one night
    I'm about to have a fun night
    With this Munchkin boy
    Glinda found for me
    And I only wish there were
    Something I could do for her
    To repay her
    Elphaba, see
    We deserve each other
    And Glinda helped it come true
    We deserve each other
    Me and Boq -
    please, Elphaba, try to understand.

    [Elphaba]
    I do...
    Glinda, listen. Nessa and I were talking about you just now.

    [Glinda]
    And I was just talking about you. I thought you might want to wear this hat to the party tonight!
    It's really-uh-sharp
    Don't you think?
    You know black is this year's pink
    You deserve each other
    This hat and you
    You're both so smart
    You deserve each other
    So here
    Out of the goodness of my heart

    [Boq]
    Listen, Nessa

    [Nessa]
    Yes?

    [Boq]
    Uh, Nessa.
    I've got something to confess, a
    Reason why, well-
    Why I asked you here tonight
    Now I know it isn't fair...

    [Nessa]
    Oh, Boq. I know why.

    [Boq]
    You do?

    [Nessa]
    It's because I'm in this chair
    And you felt sorry for me
    Well isn't that right?

    [Boq]
    No! no! It's because..uh..because...
    Because you are so beautiful

    [Nessa]
    Oh, Boq! I think you're wonderful!
    And we deserve each other
    Don't you see, this is our chance?
    We deserve each other
    Don't we, Boq?

    [Boq]
    You know what?
    Let's dance!

    [Nessa]
    What?

    [Boq]
    Let's Dance!

    [Students]
    Dancing Through Life
    Down at the Ozdust
    If only because dust
    Is what we come to
    And the strange thing:
    You're life could end up changing
    While you're dancing
    Through!
